Dramatic Portrayal: Here Comes Carrie Nation!

At NSSC, Northfield Location:

Jeanmarie Dwyer-Wrigley, Educator, National Louis University

Carrie Nation (1846-1911) was a wife, mother, widow, entrepreneur (selling miniature pewter hatchet pins), actress, and lecturer. In an era when women's roles were limited she was doing it all. Not only was she a woman warrior but she also was a member of the Temperance Movement fighting for women's rights, established safe 'cottages' for abused and needy women and children, founded 'rest homes' for the homeless aged, crusaded against the sale of alcohol, and destroyed saloons by smashing them with her hatchet. Jeanmarie becomes Carrie Nation to tell her fascinating story!
